“Marla did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Caramel. She sent photos and videos, which really gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend Marla and would absolutely trust her again in the future!”
“Joe was great—easy-going and accomodating. My dog had a great time with Joe and two other dogs! He messaged me updates and photos during the 7 days away from our dog, which was very reassuring. Joe even took my dog on a 5 mile run! Will definately book with Joe again. This was the first time using Rover.com, and I highly recommend. I also highly recommend your dog stay with JOE!”
“Tamara was fantastic! Hands down the best sitter I’ve had. I boarded my little guy with her for about 4 days. She sent me pictures and videos and kept me updated throughout on how he was doing. It really put me at ease and let me know he was in great hands. I would 100%recommend.”
“Diego is hands down my go-to for dog care, especially when I need an emergency stay. He’s absolutely amazing with Zulu — super attentive to his needs, always making sure he gets enough exercise and playtime. I love that he monitors Zulu’s food portions daily and keeps things consistent, which gives me peace of mind. When other pups are around, Diego goes the extra mile to make sure they get along with Zulu, creating a calm and friendly environment. He’s thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs he watches. I trust Diego completely — he’s the best!”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Stephanie and Luis are the absolute best! They provided fantastic care for Toto. The communication was outstanding and frequent. The reassuring updates made my time away completely stress-free. Toto came home incredibly happy and well-cared for. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Zulma took such great care of my two Shitzus Louie & Zoey. I got regular photo/video updates which I really appreciated. She asked for permission, which I gave, to bathe them, they were most likely smelly due to the weather. Can I tell you when we picked them up they were so silky, shiney and soft! Even more so than when they come from the groomers. I really must ask her what is the product she used! We will most definitely book her again!”
“Ms. Patience took great care of my little one. Sent plenty of updates and she took Badu on 2x the walks she usually gets. Definitely recommended her to everyone with pets that I know. Will use her services in the future :)”
“Lia was responsive and sent detailed updates throughout each day. Lia was also very flexible with some last minute changes I needed to make to the booking. Foxy had a great time staying with her!”
“Our 13 yo pitbull loved her stay with Christian! She is very communicative, sent us photos, and made sure she got all her meds. Would leave our pup with her again.”
“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”
“Lillian took great care of our terrier mix, Martha, and made sure she got along with Lillian’s pups and another boarder. She sent several pics of Martha out and about while we were away. Lillian always responded quickly to our texts and left us feeling like Martha was being well cared for. We absolutely will consider using her services again next time we need to board Martha.”
“Jayla took great care of my baby. She made sure to send plenty of pics and videos. My baby had a great time with Jayla and I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Elissa was wonderful with my dogs. She was accommodating, asked great questions, and followed my instructions for feeding and walking perfectly. I got pictures and video of my dogs every day, which made me feel like they were in great hands while I was away. Elissa is very caring and truly likes and enjoys dogs. I highly recommend Elissa to care for your dogs when you are away. Thank you Elissa!”
“Lynette & Vincent are great! This was my first time using River to trust my pup to someone. I could not have chosen a better sitter. Bucky stayed with Lynette and her family for 4 nights. I received pics and messages before I got home after dropping him off and all throughout my time away. The constant commute and quick response was great. My pup will be back when my travels take me away again. I highly recommend them.”
“Adiyah took great care of Thor while I was away. She kept me updated throughout his stay, sent pictures, and let me know how he was settling in, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”
“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life! I adopted my first dog, Beth, in 2015 when she was just 14 weeks old, and I trained her myself. During the pandemic, I adopted my second dog, Buz, at 8 months old who had aggression and resource guarding issues. Because of them both, I am very watchful of dog behaviors and am not afraid of big barks! I know training basics and am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes! I am a teacher in SE DC, so during the school year, my availability is primarily evenings and weekends. During the summer, my availability is very open! I am very attentive and respectful of others homes, dogs, and instructions. Knowing that my own dogs take a minute to warm up to someone new, I will be sure to follow specific routines or guidance given! Your home will remain as it was when I enter!
“Savannah was so sweet with our beloved cats. She sent photos and gave them treats when they were willing. We were so fortunate to have her caring for our animals. Her attention and skill gave us piece of mind while we were away. Thank you, Savannah!!”
“Abigail was very attentive to the care note we left and provided a brief but descriptive summary of the check ins. We felt very comfortable having her take care of our kitties!”
“Great help, Anh really helped put my mind at ease while I was away, and helping with the dogs was a big deal. She was very attentive and reliable on time and had attention to detail. I will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend”
“This was our first visit away from our kitten, Nico, and I was incredibly nervous. However, Kayli took excellent care of our guy. She was incredibly communicative, gave Nico very well rounded visits (lots of snuggles, all of his favorite toys, etc.), and made sure to ask all of the right questions before our trip began. We will definitely be booking her again, Nico will miss her!”
“Issi (Cynthia) was the absolute BEST sitter for my sweet boy cat Coco. She was so, incredibly attentive to his health and behaviors and I felt completely at ease knowing she was staying in my apartment. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and I look forward to being able to ask her for help again the next time I go out of town. If I could leave 6 stars, I would!”
“Jada And Nazir are two amazing people. They were very personable and communicated effectively. I booked them for drop in services and they were on time and thorough.”
About: I’ve taken care of several pets since I was young. I had several dogs and cats (sometimes at the same time!). I love walking and playing with dogs, I’ve trained my puppy. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I have also taken care of kittens and adult cats. I have litter trained kittens and played with them often.

I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies (dogs) of my own who are friendly and can keep your fur baby company. I am use to watching other people’s fur babies in a 24 hour care setting.
“I highly recommend Mickela for your pet sitting needs. She was able to fill a super last min need for drop-ins on my two kitties while I was away for a few days. She responded quickly and was able to meet me at short notice. She was very sweet and the boys took to her immediately. She was great about cleaning up their messes (including a puke surprise left by one of them lol). This was the first time I booked a sitter to do daily drop-ins and I’m so glad I reached out to Mickela. She was such a huge help. 🤗”
About: I’ve taken care of a few smaller dogs, me and animals seem too get along well so meeting a new dog goes over well! And I’m no stranger too a good walk so if your dog has energy too let go, If you allow it we’ll jog! Everyday is a pet care! I currently stay with a dog and a cat! No stranger too there ways, and fun animal smells :). Feeding, changing water, getting that rough playtime in for max satisfaction 🐕 Everything I do the animals are in thought! Considering we share the space together, just generally staying aware of what might me dangerous for our animal freinds!
“Erica was great with our cat. She was very responsive and helpful. She went above and beyond, e.g. by also bringing the mail inside and stopping by for an additional, next-day visit. Would definitely recommend her and work with her again. Thank you, Erica!”
“Natalie is an excellent sitter for my cat Hollis! All stars for her! Very professional & communicative! Great pictures of my cat! She fed my Hollis, change water, cleaned litter, took it my mails too & fed stray cats on our porch! Awesome!!!❤️😘”
About: Hi! My name is Anjelica. I am a dog person and a cat person but if I am to be honest I have gotten a huge soft spot for cats since having 2 of my own. I have pet sit for people many times over the past couple of years, cats and dogs. Whether it involved me going to their house, walking them, or having them come to my house for a couple of hours. I have a car so I am able to drive to wherever I’m needed and am available most days! Like I said you can trust me with your fur baby. I am particular with how I feed my own cats so I understand certain routines that may be requested when it comes to watching other people’s pets!😄 I am available to provide pet care throughout the week (M-F) 10am-7:30pm. If you would like me to provide pet care more than once throughout the day or week I just ask that you provide enough detail and clear communication I want to provide the best care for the pets. I ask the owner(s) about anything I should specifically do or not do, how often should I walk them, when their feeding times are, etc. I just make sure I have all the necessary info so the pet can be taken care of properly and safely and then it’s time for belly rubs!
“While I didn’t actually get to meet Edmond and Nafis, they were very easy and pleasant to work with. They were also accommodating when my trip got unexpectedly extended. I got detailed summaries of each visit and lots of pictures which always puts my mind at ease! I will definitely be booking them again in the future.”

“Sasha was welcomed and enjoyed every moment with his Melissa and two fur babies. I highly recommend Melissa. She was understanding of my hectic schedule. Truly appreciated. Make me comfortable and reassuring with effective communication and pictures!! Amazing job! She want to come back already.”
“My dog, Freddie, stayed with Joe for an afternoon while we were out in Beaufort. Joe has a great location, super convenient to downtown and a great backyard for the pups to play in. Joe made things super easy and his dog, Watson, kept Freddie busy and entertained for the afternoon. Would highly recommend Joe and Watson and hope to have Freddie stay again in the future!”
About: I had a dog named Buddy that I loved deeply for 16 years. Buddy passed away two years ago and it has been difficult moving on without him.I am looking for opportunities to dogsit for companionship and an excuse to be more active. I have dogsat for family many times and have experience caring for a range of ages and breeds. I am most familiar with caring for senior dogs. I work fully remote and will be able to be with your baby throughout the day. Please consider me you new sitter! Pet care fits into my daily routine, since I work from home, I’m able to take care of the dog during the day and night. I typically wake up pretty early and keep a regimented schedule throughout the day. I make sure the dog is walked. I make sure that I spend a little time playing with them if they’re older dogs and I spend a little time rubbing them or petting them. Some dogs don’t like all of that so you really have to pay attention to what type of dog you’re getting. Luckily I love all dogs so it’s all fun for me.
“This was my puppy’s first time at doggy daycare, and Jayla was amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent plenty of photos. My pup had a great time playing and socializing with another puppy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — highly recommend!”
“My baby Titan had a great time with TayShawn and her family. He was all tuckered out when he got home from playing. I would definitely use her again. Thank you for loving on our baby like one of your own”
About: As a woman In her 40s, in addition to growing up with a German Shepard/Husky mix, I’ve had years of experience with dogs. In 2019, My daughter & I added a new addition to our family which is known as Our Chihuahua Mellow 🎀! With that being said, I have experience with pups ranging in Age, Breed & Size. I work part-time , so I have plenty of time to care for your pups. I’d prefer any bookings with atleast a 2-3 day notice so I can adjust my schedule and take care of your fur babies to the best of my abilities! 🐶 I have a Fenced in backyard that allows the dogs to play on a Safe & confined space. I also have a large crate if needed.
“Nisha was great when she greeted us at the door. Immediately Bash saw the other dogs and got so excited. Nisha kept me informed on Bash’s progress all day with pictures. Love how she was so on point. I’ll definitely will be using Nisha again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and it ignited my passion to become a veterinarian—something I’m currently diving into with excitement! I adore animals like they’re my new best friends, and working with all sorts of creatures has filled my heart since I was a little girl. Now, getting the opportunity to do what I love feels like a dream come true! I’ve had incredible experiences grooming pets, administering medicine, and ensuring their daily needs are met—each moment is an adventure! I even got certified as a canine attendant, which was an amazing milestone for me! Plus, it’s not just me; my whole family joins in on the fun with pet sitting! If you ever worry about your furry baby when they’re in my care, put those fears aside! We are all passionate about providing love, respect, and the very best care for every furbaby we encounter. We’re dedicated to making tails wag and hearts happy! 😊 I’m currently a college student so having a routine for myself and my fur baby is a must in my books! I love to experience meeting new personalities with animals as I do people. Although I am young (I like to hang out with my friends of course) I still try to insert my pet into my fun through a safe manner. With me, there’s always room for a fur baby to tag along and enjoy themselves as much as they can. My family consists of a lot of kids and puppies so whenever your pet is here they are always on the go. I try to keep your fur baby as active as possible especially if they’re a high energy baby. Just know your baby is gonna be living a dream life in my care!
“Theresa was amazing! Rosie had a great stay with her and T'Challa. Everything went perfectly, I'm so grateful that Theresa took such good care of Rosie while I visited the National Mall.”
“Toby had another great day at doggy daycare with Diego! I received tons of update videos and photos throughout the day. Diego takes care of my pup as if he were his own. I’ve used him several times and will continue to do so!”
“Thank you so much for caring for our Schnauzer puppy once again. Rosina always does a great job and is always very responsive and attentive to our schedule and needs.”
“Alejandra is an a amazing! Me and my Miniature Schnauzer WALL-E relocated. We've been trying to find someone loving, caring and great with fur babies. Our MEET and Greet with her was so inviting. She introduced us to handsome lil guy Ritchie (Pomeranian). WALL-E and Ritchie for familiar with each other with no worries!. I used the day care service. Alejandra was great with communicating. Very professional and she loves showing love to WALL-E. She presented videos, photos and kept me updated on how my lil guy was doing throughout the day. Thank you WALL-E and Q”
About: Recently married and paying off bills! If you have animal needs, I'm your girl! I've had cats and dogs my whole life. All kinds of breeds-mostly huge ones🤣 husky, chow, labs. I currently swap pet care with a neighbor, so I figured why not sign up for Rover! She said she used to do it, and she enjoyed Rover. It gives me a dopamine boost every time I get to see the fur babies. I'll treat them just as my own. I work from home, so with enough notice, I can make time to make runs out to care of your pets! I am in Temple Hills - very nearby is easiest. I usually immediately let out the dogs or walk the dogs. Then I feed them. While they are eating, I will do whatever needs to be done such as filling water bowls, cleaning up messes, etc. Then once they are done, I give lots of hugs or play depending on the doggie needs. Some dogs just want to sit under my feet and sleep while I'm at the counter or some dogs have all the energy in the world. Cats tend to just be cats 🤣 I had a cat that requires injections, so long as the dog or cat tolerates, I can do shots, oral or topical meds.
“Chris came through at a very critical time for us . This was our first time leaving our Rocky with anyone and we were very nervous of leaving him. But we are very pleased with everything , Chris was very responsive and sent pictures of our dog while we were away .”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I currently have a rescue pointer/pit mix that I’ve raised and trained since he was 9 weeks old — he’s now 5 years old and well-structured, socialized, and balanced. I’m comfortable working with high-energy breeds as well as more laid-back dogs. I understand the importance of routine, boundaries, and clear communication to create a calm environment. My home offers a private fenced backyard and is located one block from parks and trails, which allows for structured walks and safe outdoor time. I am fully remote for work so you can expect daily updates, photos, and a clean, safe, and organized space for your dog while you’re away.

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I provide more than just walks — I provide safe, loving, and attentive care tailored to every pup’s unique personality and needs. My background includes fostering dogs, working in a professional dog boarding facility, volunteering in animal shelters, and gaining experience in an animal hospital setting, which has given me the skills to confidently care for dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. As a dedicated fur mom myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every dog like family and focus on creating a comfortable, stress-free, and fun experience while you’re away. Whether your pup needs extra patience, structured care, medication support, playtime, or simply lots of love and attention, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. I pride myself on reliability, communication, and building genuine bonds with both pets and owners. Your dog’s well-being will always be my top priority. My schedule is structured to make sure every dog in my care gets the time, attention, exercise, and consistency they deserve. I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday from 4 PM–12 AM, so on those days I’m available for morning and noon visits, walks, drop-ins, feedings, potty breaks, and quality playtime before heading to work. Friday through Sunday, I have open availability and can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and nighttime care as needed. I always try to be flexible and communicate clearly with pet parents so I can provide the best care possible for each dog’s routine and individual needs. With my years of hands-on experience working with dogs in boarding facilities, shelters, fostering, and animal hospitals, I understand how important reliability, patience, and personalized care are for both pets and owners. When caring for pets in their homes, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every dog is different, so I tailor my care to each pet’s specific needs, routine, and personality. Whether it’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, cuddles, or giving extra patience to anxious pets, I make sure your fur baby receives the same love and attention they’re used to at home. During walks and pet sitting visits, I focus on safety, communication, and making sure your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for every step of the way.
“Kennedi came through for my baby at last minute. She has great communication skills, super nice and I know how adventurous and playful Lotus can be so I know she's patient! She's very attentive and I appreciate her for coming through. I will book again”
“We loved Kalani soooooo much! Our dog, Maro, literally refused to switch to another walker after spending a few weeks with her while our regular walker was away, he adores her that much — we’re hoping he will reconsider now that she’s moving out of our area! She is amazing with dogs, super attentive and caring, and with pet parents she is perfectly professional, communicative, and reliable. 13/10 would recommend for any pet-related service!”
About: Cat papi Trav. Good for watching after your little fluff of love while you’re out enjoying yourself. Avid pet lover, but have a soft spot for cats Work from home so I have time to sneak in belly rubs and ear scratches throughout the day. If your cat/dog isn’t the most social we car look at each other from the across the room. I have a 2 bed room condo. Enough space for all to enjoy themselves. A nice park for the walks, and nice windows for the cats to peer into the outside world.
“Michael was so great helping me out at the last minute when I got stuck away from home. He was patient especially when he found my dog had ripped open a bunch of of beef jerky and made sure to let me know asap! The criminal dog survived and Michael save my butt.”
“What a good thing to be able to trust someone with your dog and with Tiffany I felt it 100%. She was communicative- sending lots of updates and photos. From the photos it’s evident how happy my Nera was with being cared for and walked by Tiffany. Would rebook without hesitation.”
About: Since growing up at a young age, I’ve always had a pet by my side and now that I love daily unconditionally. If there is one thing I can teach them is to get along with others animals as well as people. My patience and understanding will keep them thriving and healthy. I only want to give them more than they need. I am available 5 days of the week to care for your pet, including the weekend if needed! After all, someone has to be there for them. No pet under my supervision has ever been in harms way. I have a big cage with food and water. Pet toys, cleaning supplies, and pet proof items to keep them safe.
About: I provide reliable, gentle care for pets of all personalities. I take time to understand each animal’s routine and comfort level, offering calm interaction, clean spaces, and consistent feeding.

I’m currently a full-time student attending school online so I’m open and available for all your pet care needs, at any time of day! I’m fine with doing weekends, and overnight stays if necessary, just let me know! I offer calm, reliable in-home care so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I follow your routines closely—feeding, cleaning, playtime, and any special needs—while keeping their environment tidy and stress-free. My goal is to make your home feel just as safe and comforting for your pet as when you’re there!
About: Hi, I have had a lot of experience with my own pets, as I have had dogs all of my life, in addition to dog sitting that I have done on the side in previous years. I am such a pet lover and I am really looking forward to this experience, especially since I work 100% remote. Some things that distinguish me from other people is that I am open to learning, so new experiences and situations come easily to me. Secondly, I am extremely caring, especially when it comes to other people's animals, since I understand what its like to leave your pet in the care of somebody else. I am also easy to work with and have no issues communicating through any possible issues. Working 100% remote allows me the flexibility to integrate pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. I can take short breaks throughout the day to attend to my dog’s needs, whether it’s a quick walk, some playtime, or feeding. I also make time for longer walks in the morning and late afternoon, which gives both of us a refreshing break and helps my dog stay active. Being remote means I can adapt my schedule to ensure they get the care and attention they need without interrupting my work flow. In my home, I provide pets with a comfortable and spacious environment where they feel right at home. My 3-bedroom house offers plenty of room for pets to explore and relax, and I have a fenced-in backyard that allows for safe, supervised outdoor play. I prioritize creating a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring pets have ample attention, playtime, and exercise. For walks, feeding, and any specific needs they may have, I tailor my routine to each pet’s preferences. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I keep their routines consistent, providing the same level of personalized care and attention to ensure they feel secure and happy in their familiar environment.
“Alejandra is amazing, she treats the dogs as if they were her own and has been super flexible for when the dogs need a walk. Definitely would recommend anyone looking for someone to walk their Alejandra is there girl.”
“Tia is awesome with Ziggy. In just 1 week, Ziggy has gotten used to her coming through the door. And sits and waits for her. This has been a lifesaver for us. We will continue to have Tia around as long as she will have us.”
About: Hello there! My name is Romon, you can also call me Griz. I suppose my friends see me as the momma or papa bear of the group haha. Anyway I've been taking care of my friend's, family's, and of course personal 'furry best friends'. I have a background in personal training and fitness. Never really ran into a dog that didn't like or respect me at least after the first couple treats or games I was able to play with them. Recently lost two friends one moved away the other, Sasha; a poodle mix of 12 years, passed away I was luckily able to spend more time with her during 2020 before she had to go. Her memories are still with me and I know many are back to work and wish they could spend more time with their newest pups. We can work together to make sure they're, well taken care of, and I just wanted to help out and lessen the load of watching over these wonderful epitomes of joy and energy. I've walked, sitted, played with, slept besides, and even cleaned up after all sorts of dogs from puppyhood to very senior dogs, 10lbs to 100+lbs believe it or not, can't seem to get a break from them, which I don't mind! Lastly I hope to get to know your fuzzy yet amazing family members on a professional and even better, personal level. Feel free to message for any questions I pay very close attention to any special instructions. I've recently found great streams of income im able to maintain at home while working on my online degree Fortunately my major for the 3rd semester in a row is online only. My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I wanted to make the most of my situation and again the main thing is to help out new or out of practice pet owners. Im free at all hours of day and night outside of a select few evenings where I train clients to achieve their fitness goals. Mostly online so feel free to reach out and schedule with me if youd like recurring services. We'll make it work. Im a capable and loving pet owner that doesn't mind breaking a sweat. I would love to keep your fur baby busy AND happy whether its a small walk with portable water bowls, at home self made doggy puzzles to keep their minds sharp and busy, even if I am tired, for those longer sessions. I have access and experience to great doggy parks equipped with fencing and great walking areas, and lots of car space for those longer trips or incase of an emergency where I have to safely transfer your fluffy children quickly. I have a lot of experience to share and rely on too much to list here but go ahead and quiz me at Fanaticallymotivated email on google for those of you new or unsure of my services with the Rover service provider. I hope to work with you both and take care of any worries.
About: I worked at petsmart pets hotel for a couple of years after high school and I loved it. I love all dogs. I especially love boxers and Malteses. I've had several different pets over my lifetime but mainly cats. I currently have a beagle lab mix that keeps me on my toes I work overnight so my day schedule is completely open and I'm looking for a little more pet love to feel that space. Hopefully bringing along my girl won't be an issue as she goes with me just about everywhere. In my home, my girl is allowed to roam pretty freely as she is well house trained. She gets walked about 4, sometimes five times a day as she is a high energy dog. Whatever the pet parent requires of me in terms of caring for their pet is what I will implement in caring for their pet.

About: Hi all! I’ve cared for pets my whole life and love them all dearly. I have history caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and more. I’m also comfortable working with aggressive pets, administering oral meds and providing exercise and play to enrich their time while you’re away. :) I work from home as a pet portrait artist on JBA (feel free to ask about them)! So my schedule is flexible so please feel free to reach out! I can care for your pets in your home as well as take them on walks around your neighborhood. I can provide feedings, walks and lovin’ whenever works for you and your fur family.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 5 years, including raising my own newborn puppy, and dog-sitting for families during travel seasons. I enjoy staying active with high-energy dogs and spending quality time with them indoors and outdoors. I currently offer pet-care on weekday evenings and am relatively flexible regarding scheduling on the weekends. I have plenty of time to play with pups indoors and outdoors, and enjoy all walks- long and short! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my #1 priority! I enjoy learning about your pet’s preferences and specific needs. I’m very detail-oriented, agile, a quick learner, and a reliable communicator. I prioritize sending check in photos/videos and status updates regularly throughout any service.

“Marla did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Caramel. She sent photos and videos, which really gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend Marla and would absolutely trust her again in the future!”
“Joe was great—easy-going and accomodating. My dog had a great time with Joe and two other dogs! He messaged me updates and photos during the 7 days away from our dog, which was very reassuring. Joe even took my dog on a 5 mile run! Will definately book with Joe again. This was the first time using Rover.com, and I highly recommend. I also highly recommend your dog stay with JOE!”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Our 13 yo pitbull loved her stay with Christian! She is very communicative, sent us photos, and made sure she got all her meds. Would leave our pup with her again.”
“Lillian took great care of our terrier mix, Martha, and made sure she got along with Lillian’s pups and another boarder. She sent several pics of Martha out and about while we were away. Lillian always responded quickly to our texts and left us feeling like Martha was being well cared for. We absolutely will consider using her services again next time we need to board Martha.”
“Jayla took great care of my baby. She made sure to send plenty of pics and videos. My baby had a great time with Jayla and I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Elissa was wonderful with my dogs. She was accommodating, asked great questions, and followed my instructions for feeding and walking perfectly. I got pictures and video of my dogs every day, which made me feel like they were in great hands while I was away. Elissa is very caring and truly likes and enjoys dogs. I highly recommend Elissa to care for your dogs when you are away. Thank you Elissa!”
“Adiyah took great care of Thor while I was away. She kept me updated throughout his stay, sent pictures, and let me know how he was settling in, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”
“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”
“So happy to book with Mark again. He and Antoinette take such great care of my baby, and they are so communicative. And the pictures are always fantastic! Spud had a great time as always, and we look forward to our next stay!”
“Vania was really great and accommodating. The dogs were happy and they made it really easy on us with updates and keeping the dogs longer with our late flight. Would definitely use them again”
“Yolanda was a great sitter! She communicated well and was flexible when I was able to pick my dog up a day early due to a change in travel plans. My dog had a great time with her!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! Super communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was proactive about making sure our dog was as comfortable as possible during her stay. It was clear that she is knowledgable and experienced in caring for all kinds of dogs.”
“Found Melonie on Rover and first met her back in January for a meet and greet before a trip I had been planning. That trip ended up not happening, so this was actually our first time using her services. The original meet-up went so well. My dog Sky isn't very socialized and tends to be anxious around new people and places, so how quickly she took to Melonie was a great sign. This was also the first time we'd left Sky with anyone outside of family, so that mattered a lot to us. Since some time had passed, Melonie graciously offered to do another meet and greet before this booking. Sky warmed up to her right away again. This time I brought my daughter along, and she felt just as confident in Melonie as I did. We both knew Sky was in good hands. Melonie has such a calm, pleasant presence, and it clearly puts Sky at ease. She sent us daily updates with pictures throughout the stay, and Sky looked happy and relaxed in every one. We'll absolutely be booking with Melonie again in the future!”
“Shelby was wonderful caring for our dog! She was quick and responsive to our inquiry, kindly took our dog to the dog park and also shared daily updates and pictures of their adventures. We’ll definitely request her dog sitting services again. Thank you, Shelby!”
“My dog loves going to James’ place and playing with other pups. He’s happy and worn out after. Glad to have found a good spot for Larry to hang out when I’m away!!”
“Mary Hastings was available last minute to board our dog on New Year's Eve for a medical appointment, and we couldn't be more thankful. Our pup loves hanging out with her and always comes back tired and sleepy.”
